Great, thanks. Okay please run the following fix. Make sure your antivirus is disabled so that it does not prevent this from running.

It will also run a full disk check on your computer. This may take at least 10 minutes to run, up to a few hours. Please just let it run.

Please download the attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop.
NOTE. It's important that both files, FRST or FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on this particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system.

Run FRST or FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait.
If the tool needs a restart please make sure you let the system restart normally and let the tool complete its run after restart.
The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please attach or post it to your next reply.

Note: If the tool warned you about an outdated version please download and run the updated version.

fixlist.txt

Thanks

Ron

Okay, please run the following process and try to reinstall Malwarebytes

Please uninstall your current version of MBAM and reinstall the latest version using the following guide. MBAM Clean Removal Process 2x


Let me know how that goes now.

 

I've never installed it before, every time I tried (I first started trying a week and a half ago maybe two weeks), it gave that error every time.

I had the same problem and error message. Do you use a ramdisk from ImDisk for your temp drive by any chance? I temporarily changed the temp drive back to defaults and the install worked fine. This is listed in the known issues in v3.0.5.

  • Malwarebytes 3.0 Installation can fail if installed from an imdisk virtual disk.
